I feel like there has been waves of losses.

Web 2.0 upgrades made everyone feel like they had to have a shiny polished site. We lost a lot of fun amateurs.

Insta killed blogs, suddenly everyone wanted a insta or YT brand rather than a blog/rss

Everything became sponsored =- say i wanted to find out how to polish my boots, the first 3 pages and everything everywhere suddenly tries to sell me boots.

This is why i no longer enjoy the internet. I know i sound old man yelling at cloud.

Old man yelling at cloud was right all along. The cloud is genuinely trying to ruin us.
